9780747252924: Tackling Rugby: The Changing World of Professional Rugby

Synopsis

In this superb book, Gareth Edwards looks at how rugby has evolved on the field, with ever higher levels of fitness and greater speed, but also asks if rule changes are depriving the game of some of its unique aspects. He questions whether the sport is losing touch with its heartlands and selling its soul. Talking to players past and present such as Keith Wood, Jason Little and Graham Price, he provides a remarkable portrait of the sport he loves that will appeal to rugby fans everywhere. He deals with issues such as how rugby has coped with going professional and whether it could ever return to amateurism, are the demands of television destroying the sport, and much else besides.
